So I had a party and brought out my NAD 320BEE, and cranked it up to about 1/2 capacity for around 5 hours. It got hot and stopped working.
I had a couple questions. One is does the preamp volume of the source affect the heat or load of the amp? I noticed that the preamp, was really relatively loud. Not sure if that matters.
Is this at all expected / normal? I have never really listened to music as loud and long as I did in that setting, no idea if thats normal?
If this behavior is normal and expected I am curious what would be a NAD or Rotel AMP that could handle long party hours and not stress out.
Thanks
Todd
